Chapter 5 Professionalization Process
"Frog jumping can quickly strengthen your leg muscles, and as for the balance beam-" The "elder sister" of Flat Foot Alley said condescendingly with an attitude of "I don't have to tell you", "Your balance is a thief's shame! The bald old man should have stuck all of your heads down into the gutter a long time ago, and you can't tell the difference between above and below anyway, can you!"
What does frog jumping have to do with chicken? Agui, the head of dysentery, knows nothing more about this than other children, but he has a deep understanding of the fists and knees of the "elder sister", and he understands it unequivocally, so he straightens up as much as he can, and replies: "Understood!" In fact, he didn't understand anything, just like he didn't know what these children had to do with thieves, thieves, even the kind of thieves who could only steal by drilling dog holes, were more than one level higher than them in the underground society of Shuanghe County. www.biquge.info The bald old man and his men are not so much thieves as they rely on agility, eyesight, and the contempt of ordinary people to pick up some leftovers of cold shrimp in the sewers of the dark world. They can't even be said to be beggars, you know, the beggars in Shuanghe County are also organized professionals, and the degree of organization is still very high, an outsider may be able to ask for a bowl of cold rice at the desolate north gate, but if he dares to put a begging bowl at the lively south gate, his bowl will not live for a quarter of an hour!
In the past, the "work" of the dysentery head Agui and his companions It is to wander around Pingjiao Alley all day long, and when they see someone who has something of little value and forgets to collect it, or which careless and busy housewife sends a child who is not strong enough to take a money to buy oil sauce and so on, they will easily pocket the extra money and things, and a vegetable seller who carries the burden walks too close to Pingjiao Alley, and a few greens will be missing on the burden, and when the melon cart is stopped by those bigger gangs to ask for money, they will not care if these rats in the gutter take a few melons. There is only so much evil they can do, and they are neither ashamed nor satisfied by it—what else can they do?
Poor God, they can't see anything after dark!
After learning this, the "sister boss" seemed a little dizzy...... However, Ah Gui can't confirm this, because the "elder sister" is not a person who can be reasonable, of course, the bald fourth is not a reasonable person, and the level of him and Ah Gui is not high enough to understand what "reason" is, but the bald fourth will only find trouble with them after waking up hungry. When he had enough food to fill his belly, he didn't care whether the nobles spread out their rags to bask in the sun to catch lice, nor did he care whether the chicken and dog scraps they brought with him piled up his "home" like a hybrid of a kennel and a rag pile, and at most only when he occasionally left the bed to loosen his hands and feet but accidentally stepped on something, he would curse a few angry words, beat up the nearest unlucky ghost, and order them to clear a way for him. The rest of the time, he's a good guy with a loose heart.
The "Sister Boss" is a completely different creature, when she took over as the boss of Pingjiao Alley, the first thing she did was to order Ah Gui and the others to completely "clean this garbage can", that is, they had to make the ground, walls, and roofs as shiny as the mirrors of the young ladies. To do this, they had to first carry out all the things that had been accumulated in the house over the years, burn them all in the fire, and then go to the well to carry many buckets of water, and wipe and brush, and sweep, and that day they did not even have the strength to lift the bowl at night, and their bodies were in a hot pain, because the "elder sister" was the supervisor of the whole process, and they were not allowed to be lazy or so-so, and they were always reminded of these two points with their fists and whips.
When the house and yard are cleaned up, the next thing is to make them have nightmares when they fall asleep, frog jumping, balance beam, soft rope and many other flower work, all the movements, "sister boss" will show them twice, she does it so light, so good-looking, even Ah Gui will forget her fierce true face when he sees it, sometimes I can't help but shout!
Gui had always thought that he was a quick and clever thief, and he ran very fast through the winding alleys, and whether it was a vegetable vendor or someone from other gangs, he would usually give up the chase after him within a hundred paces, but to dance and somersault on a thin log no longer than the width of his little finger, "Sister Boss" should really go to the monkey who played the monkey artist, not him!
"Use your brains, fool!" Usually the response he gets is this, accompanied by a whistling fist or whip, and later, "Sister Boss" did not know where to get a few pots of cactus, she put these under the thin wooden strips to be her "overseers", these overseers are so powerful, after Agui has learned twice, he will feel pity when he sees the needles and needles used by the women to sew clothes, and he almost does not call the needles and needles with them.
And walking the sticks wasn't even the hardest of his new lessons!
"Hands, hands, are there hands or chicken feet on your arms? I don't see your hands capable of doing even the slightest thing!" she was the most stern in this class, and she seemed to think that their fingers should be omnipotent, whether it was fishing balls from a hot pot or supporting their bodies with one finger! Even the hands and people twisted into various strange postures, and when the class was released, whether it was Agui or other children, they felt that they would not even be able to walk.
Outside of class, they didn't have it easy!
First of all, they have to wash themselves every day, if it weren't for the water they have to carry themselves, it doesn't sound so bad, and secondly, their clothes have to be washed every day, and they have to get their own manicures!
They still have to learn how to cook on their own!
The "elder sister" supervised them to carry back all kinds of things that could be fired, and split them into thin wooden strips, the width and length of which were as uniform as a ruler, and then the washing of vegetables, washing rice, and frying fish, all kinds of work had her prescribed paradigm, and if she did not come according to her requirements, the "elder sister" was first unreasonable, and secondly she was not accommodating, and her fists and leather whips were enough! God knows why she had such high requirements for the food of the nobles, and she did not eat it herself!
After the meal, they have to "review" their "homework" for the day, and then there is massage time, if they don't try to relax, they will not be able to continue the class tomorrow, and they will be stuck with a few sewing needles on their bodies when they sleep, and the "sister boss" says that it will help to open up their muscles, and the nobles think it will help to nail them and prevent them from escaping - just like the legendary nail villain......
